Travelodge

[Freamon]

Last time I was in a Travelodge, half the people at the breakfast seemed to be grabbing 30 sausages each and taking them back to their room to make sandwiches to take out for lunch. Staff didn't seem to care.

I generally avoid Travelbodge but there are some that are not entirely grim.

TA reviews are usually pretty accurate if you ignore the extreme ones.

Thanks for that, it's just put the nail in the coffin for the travelodge idea!

I've got a week of training next month which I need to book accommodation for... as I'll be off work for a week and forking out for the training I'm trying to save on the hotel costs.
But I just can't bring myself to book into the Travelodge (which also happens to be the hotel closest to where I need to be)

Is it as bad as I'm imagining it will be?

Have you searched Premier Inn, some smart new ones around, as good as the Hilton if you let lucky.

Yup - the closest one is actually more expensive than the Hilton for the dates I need


I actually stayed in a brand new Premier Inn a couple of months ago, it had literally only opened its doors for the first time a few hours before I got there.

it's £19 per night for the one I want

It looks like its a relatively new building too but for the sake of an extra £27 per night I could stay at the Hilton

They're okay. You used to be able to get them for £15 per night if you booked in advance.

Yup. But cheap. Won't kill you.

Depending on where they are travelodges can rage from sparse but comfortable to dingy horrible places to stay

[chef]

Yes
